Volunteer Appreciation Party

Volunteer Appreciation Party

One of the wonderful facts about libraries is that they cannot exist without the support of their communities.  We, at the Lisle Free Library, want to celebrate all of our amazing community members and volunteers by throwing a party!!  It doesn’t matter how often you helped or how small the task, we greatly appreciate everything you all have done for us!  There is no way we could have managed such a vibrant Summer Reading Program, become an automated library, and survived a major renovation project with some pretty awesome volunteers.

So please help us count our blessings this holiday season by being our honored guests on Wednesday, December 27th from 5-7 pm at the Lisle Free Library.  There will be food, fun, and friends. For more information, please call (607) 692-3115, email us at lislefreelibrary@gmail.com, or message us on our Facebook page.
